Let me show you how to make a layered greeting card that screams spring! This card has elements that give such dimension and beauty.
Please tell me I am not the only one who buys a Stamp Set and forgets about it? As I was looking thru my stamps I came across ‘Lovely is The Day’ stamp set. I pulled it out and felt terrible that no ink had touched it yet! LOL! I’m going to change that today and show you how a layered greeting card can ‘come to life’!
The matching dies are easy to work with and the layers you can create really give any handmade card a WOW factor!

Which element of this layered greeting card did you find to be the most fun?
As you can see the fern doesn’t cut completely out. I colored the fern with a Sponge Dauber and Pear Pizzazz Classic Ink. I did it very heavily and you will need to mask the Whisper White around it with a Post It Note. To see what I mean check out the video!
Layered Greeting Card 1 Measurements:
- Whisper White Thick Cardstock – 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″, scored and folded at 4 1/4″
- Soft Suede Cardstock – 4″ x 5 1/4″
- Whisper White Cardstock – 3 3/4″ x 5″, scraps for flowers
- Pear Pizzazz Cardstock – 1″ x 3 3/4″, scraps for leaves
I recommend that you run the dies thru your machine with some scraps of paper to see what everything does! Some images cut completely while others only cut a portion. I share what they do on my video if you find that helpful!
Truly the possibilities are endless with these dies! The fun thing too is that you can combine them with other stamp sets and dies for completely differently looks!!!! Think other Floral/leaves sets you may have in your stash!
